palace

A palazzo, in Maremma, is above all an imposing building, often old, which served as a residence for a noble or important family. Forget the idea of a simple royal palace. Here, it is rather a large urban dwelling, sometimes fortified, which testifies to the local history and power. You will often come across them in the heart of the historic centers, with their austere facades, their hidden inner courtyards and their impressive dimensions. These palazzi are rarely museums to visit, but they give a concrete idea of the past social organization and the local architecture. Sometimes, today they house charming hotels or apartments, allowing you to sleep in the heart of history.
